While the search results mention CAR T-cell therapy as one of the treatment options for relapsed DLBCL, they don't provide specific statistics about relapse rates after CAR T-cell therapy within a year. However, we do know that about one-third of DLBCL patients who achieve complete response after initial treatment (with R-CHOP) will relapse within two years. For context, when looking at overall relapse patterns, studies show that the risk of DLBCL relapse is highest within the first two years of completing treatment and achieving remission. After second-line treatments in general, about 44% of patients achieve a second remission, though this statistic isn't specific to CAR T-cell therapy.

I am going to be scheduled in late August for Car T. They will remove my blood and send it to “boot camp” and train it to attack my Mantel Cell Lymphona. About three weeks later I return to the hospital for the blood to be put back in. I will then remain in the hospital for up to 4 weeks depending the side effects. The fewer side effects the shorter the hospital stay. I won’t be able to drive for a while as they are worried about seizures. I have researched this plus a second opinion and all agreed that Car T is the way to go. I am still open to opinions if you have any. Ellen look up Car T and ai will give you a good description of it. Best wishes to this lymphoma community.
